Returning to World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft has been around for a very long time.  I began playing shortly after its launch in 2004.

This will not be an in-depth feature here – it’s not a WoW how-to.  Yet it is a place where I can put links and general information that matter to my gaming needs in WoW right now.  The ability to pick which expansion to level in will be of great help in getting some of those things accomplished.

 

DRAGONFLIGHT expansion 11/28/22

Time for a new expansion, a new race, and a shake-up to the Professions of World of Warcraft.  Below are links that will help me in my gaming… if you play WoW, then perhaps they might help you as well. 🙂

Moving on to the Caverns:

How to start The Land Beneath quest

The Land Beneath quest begins the Patch 10.1 campaign, leading max-level players to Zaralek Cavern for the very first time. To start this mammoth questline, you’ll have to complete the prerequisite Embers of Neltharion story in the Forgotten Reach. This starts with the Hidden Legacies quest—found at The Seat of Aspects—and ends with Return to Viridia. (This quest is required to enter Zaralek Cavern, kicking off dozens more quests in the new underground zone. It should pop up like a jump scare as soon as you log in, but there are some conditions you’ll have to meet first.  If it doesn’t then you need to finish up the Forbidden Reach thru Emberthal’s questline).

Once you’ve helped Emberthal explore the caves beneath Dragonskull Island, completed A Creche Divided, and returned to Viridia, you’ll get a message on your screen saying “Continue the campaign by accepting the quest ‘The Land Beneath’ in Valdrakken.” You can then head straight to The Seat of Aspects again and speak to Hadexian to pick it up.

Here is the article link:  The Land Beneath
